It was assumed that the next Tesla electric vehicle named Model Y would become a crossover using a fundamentally new platform that refused the "12 volt" legacy in the on-board network. The company promised to install the Tesla Model Y release by the end of 2019 or the beginning of 2020, having previously built a new factory with the highest degree of automation in the world. In a word, Ilon Mask ) has traditionally demonstrated an unrealistic level of complexity, but his colleagues were able to convince him, as he admitted this week during the quarterly reporting conference.

Now Tesla returns to the original plan, according to which Model Y was to share the platform with Model 3, and this means that the new crossover will appear on the market earlier than intended. However, as the Electrek site notes , the transfer of units and units from the Tesla Model 3 should still be accompanied by the reformation of the on-board electrical system, so the unification with the sedan presented recently will be only partial. It is interesting that after such transformations the onboard network Tesla Model 3 will be updated, in this case the level of unification will again increase.

The crossover segment is the fastest growing, and Tesla would like to offer its more affordable electric vehicle as soon as possible.
